Driving Tour of Kauai's North Shore
There is much more to explore outside Kilauea. Consider a driving tour from Kilauea to Ke'e Beach Park. This fifteen mile drivetakes you to the very end of the road, as far north as the Napali coast allows. Pack the beach chairs, towels, snorkeling equipment and snacks. A good alternate to driving to Ke'e for a first look at the area is to take the Kauai North Shore Shuttle. You will be able to focus on the scenary and locations of stops along they way. Happy exploring.
UPDATE:
See Kauai North Shore Shuttle) for transportation to spots on the north road to Napali. Driving is possible but after the flood of 2018, there are new considerations. There are 100 parking spaces at Ha'ena State Park and you will need a parking and entry ticket purchased in advance. Consider taking the shuttle and be sure to reserve tickets early.
